Chapter 153: Wulai

In this way, when it was getting late, the second brother and they finally arrived at a Taoist temple. The Taoist chief inside was very enthusiastic and deliberately set aside a few houses for the ladies to borrow.

Because he was out of the house, everyone was not particular, and after eating dinner indiscriminately, Xiaoyu followed the sixth grandmother back to the room. The sixth grandmother and the nurse were busy taking care of Hui'er, while Yingxue was busy with Xiaoyu and the sixth grandmother's bedding. Xiaoyu saw that he couldn't intervene, so he paced out slowly, and when he reached the small gate of the side courtyard, he heard a little Taoist boy outside: "This little foal is really interesting, no matter how you get rid of it." ”

Xiaoyu couldn't help but be moved, pushed the door of the side courtyard and came out to take a look, sure enough, there was the little pony standing at the gate, the amniotic fluid on the body had already dried up at this time, and the fetal hair was attached to the body one by one, and the sunset shone with golden light. When the foal saw Rain come out, he turned his head and looked at Rain with his big wet eyes.

Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel compassion and said to the child: "Bother the little master to get some rice porridge." ”

After a while, the little boy brought some rice soup back in a clay pot and put it on the ground, but the foal was still not very steady, so he crossed his four legs and buried his head laboriously to lick the rice soup. Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, then brought the rice soup to her, and the foal carefully drank the rice soup with her hand.

Xiaoyu looked at it sticking out its tongue and licking its lips greedily and said, "Let's have another bowl." As he spoke, he handed Xiao Daotong a few copper plates, and said softly: "Don't let your master know, so that he won't blame you for ruining things." ”

The little Taoist boy was a little reluctant, but when he heard this, he took the copper plate and happily went to the kitchen to find some leftovers. Cook some soup and give it to the foal.

When Xiaoyu saw that it was full, she kept the rest and said to the boy, "You can keep this." Give it again tomorrow morning. ”

The second brother saw it from a distance, and hurriedly grabbed Luo Twelve, who wanted to go over and take away the foal, and waved his hand with a smile.

Xiaoyu chatted with the little boy: "Why is the guest room in the courtyard so clean and tidy, have any believers come to stay these days?"

The little Taoist boy smiled and said, "The girl is really good eyesight. Yesterday, there was a lady from a large family, and I missed the inn to borrow here, and there are not as many people as in your family. But it's a big show. ”

Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "Their horses must be very good." ”

The boy also had a little look, looked at the foal sitting next to Xiaoyu and said, "Don't say it, it's really possible that they dropped it." I heard the guard beside the lady say, 'Hurry. If any girl can't keep up, don't drag everyone down. 'That's the case. ”

Xiaoyu thought to herself: "Yes, they are in a hurry, and the mare is about to give birth." Naturally, they don't want to carry these two burdens. ”

The little Taoist boy talked about the group of people yesterday: "Xu is the treasure of a general in the north." Now I'm going to the capital. The guards around him are all dragon and tiger, and they can catch up with the second master in your house. ”

Xiao Yu listened with a smile, thinking about several big families in the north: "I don't know what their surnames are?"

The little Taoist boy said: "I heard that the lady is surnamed Wang, her son is not in good health, one did not show up, afraid of the wind, and he has a headache when he is blown by the cold wind." ”

Rain chatted with him for a moment and then walked back leisurely, and the foal immediately followed her closely. The light rain drove it away a few times. As soon as Xiaoyu turned around, it immediately followed. Xiaoyu turned her head and squinted at it, thinking in her heart: "Do you want to beat it up?" It's just that it's a small body, and I'm afraid that it won't survive with just two hits. ”

She was thinking about it, when the second master came out of the side courtyard and looked at the little pony: "It's a pity, it's a good horse, and I look at the mare is also excellent." If it is picked up by those peasants, I am afraid that it will not cherish it, and it will not be willing to feed it any good feed, and I am afraid that it will have to plow and pull carts in the future. Alas, it's a pity I don't have time to take care of it on the road, otherwise ......."

As he spoke, he snorted at the corners of his mouth, looked around the horse seriously, hesitated for a while, and then looked at Xiaoyu's face and said, "Jiu'er, why don't you take care of me for a few days on the road, that is, the first few days of difficulty." Later, when it grows stronger, it will be able to keep up. I think his father should be a famous horse in the northwest, although it is not obvious now, but in a year and a half, it will definitely sell for a good price. ”

Xiaoyu heard that the second master was going to raise it and sell it, so she was a little moved. I thought to myself: "Although it is not very easy to walk now, it will be strong in two or three days, and then it will be able to keep up with the team." The second brother is worried about me these days, and if I do something for him, he can also put his mind at ease. After thinking about it, he happily agreed.

I didn't want the foal to be very difficult, so I followed Xiaoyu until I reached the side courtyard and refused to leave, but fortunately, it was still small now, so Xiaoyu had to keep a straight face and let it stay at the door. The little foal was stubborn, and followed Xiaoyu into the house again and again, and Xiaoyu was afraid of disturbing the sixth sister-in-law in a room, so she chattered in the yard and trained it for half an hour.

The second master saw it from a distance, and showed a hint of a smile.

The next day, before dawn, the foal screamed mournfully at the door of the light rain, and the light rain had no choice but to get up early. There she washed, and when she heard the foal cry, she regretted it a little. I couldn't tell the second master, so I led it to the window and let it watch itself wash.

When the second master got on the road, he made a carriage for Xiaoyu, and when the little foal was tired of walking next to Xiaoyu's carriage, the second master let it get into Xiaoyu's carriage and rest for a while. As a result, it was only half a day, and the little foal refused to get out of the car, and must snuggle up next to Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu was entangled in it and said angrily: "I knew you were so crooked, I should have left you on the road." ”

Naturally, it didn't know what she was talking about, and only snorted and rubbed happily against her.

Xiaoyu gave it a name called Wulai, which is the homonym of its scoundrel.

Then he thought in his heart: "My brother wants to take it and sell it, because it is a good horse in the picture, but now it is nested in the car all day long and refuses to walk, how can it be done?"

I had to get out of the carriage to ride a horse, and sure enough, when Wulai saw Xiaoyu coming out, he immediately crawled out of the carriage crookedly and followed Xiaoyu. After only a quarter of an hour, Wulai used his nose to arch Xiaoyu and let her dismount. Xiaoyu was entangled by it, so she had to get off the horse and follow Wulai, but she didn't want Wulai to lower her head and let Xiaoyu ride it, Xiaoyu looked at its noodle-like little thin legs, crying and laughing.

It was not until noon that the family arrived in Huicheng. Because of the large number of people, the second master specially sent Luo Twelve out to book a larger inn, but he didn't expect the shopkeeper who came out to greet him to explain with a smile: "Yesterday, a guest who stayed overnight said that he would leave after noon, and he didn't want that boy to be sick, and he couldn't leave for a while." Now there are not a few rooms left in the upper room, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to accommodate the treasure, I'm really sorry. ”

The second master said: "It's enough for the ladies to live, and it doesn't matter what the people next to you live in." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he thanked him one after another: "The owner is worried, so I'll tell him." ”

After a while, a middle-aged man dressed in cyan flowers walked over, and said to the second master: "Thank you Second Master Xia for your accommodation, there is a side courtyard behind the small one where the daughters live, if the treasure family does not dislike it, it can be placed there." ”

Xia Erye smiled: "I am also used to walking outside, how can I not know the inconvenience of going out." Since they are sick, we will squeeze it, but we occupy your yard, how to settle your family. ”

The proprietor said: "Now only the youngest daughter has not yet married, and I will let her live with her insider." There are also six or seven rooms where the women can stay. It turned out that when he saw that the second master was kind, and when he heard that he was a dependent of the general of the border pass, he admired it in his heart, so he asked his family to vacate a side courtyard for them to live in.

The second master secretly thought that it would be more comfortable to do this, not to mention that he would leave after staying for a night, so he would naturally respond. So everyone got out of the car and settled, Xiaoyu led Wu to the back stable, and told the stable: "This is just two days old, don't put it with those adult horses." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a tall, brown-red horse neighing in the stable opposite. Wulai was startled and hid behind Xiaoyu, and the big horse rushed impatiently left and right in the stable, screaming at Wulai.

Xiaoyu thought to herself: "Didn't this group of people abandon Wulai and his mother? I see that this horse is good, and I don't know if it is Wulai's father." ”

Just as he was thinking, a young and tall guard walked in scolding, and suddenly saw a little lady standing here and hurriedly looked at it in fright. I saw that Xiaoyu was wearing a light golden pink sprinkled flower gown, and a vermilion Luo skirt was exposed underneath. Because it was already autumn, he also wore a red cloak, although it was not very luxurious, but his bearing was extraordinary. There were two guard-like men standing beside her, both wearing black arrow sleeves, looking at him like wolves.

The man was stunned in his heart, where did he dare to be arrogant, walked over and looked at the brown and red horse, and saw that the horse was fine, so he sharply reprimanded the stableman: "Take good care of my uncle's horse." ”

Xiaoyu saw that he was also staying in the hotel, so he ignored it and pulled Wulai into the stable by himself. Angry, Xiaoyu bent his index finger and flicked it its forehead, and Wulai immediately looked at Xiaoyu with teary eyes and hissed aggrievedly.

So the brown and red horses in the stables also cried, and struck the guardrail as they cried. The young guard was also taken aback, and kept tugging at the reins. The other horses were frightened and barked along, and Wulai shivered beside Xiaoyu in fright as he listened to the neighing of one after another. Xiaoyu saw that it was pitiful, so she had to give up.

Just take it back and don't know where to put it, Xiaoyu was tilting her head and pondering, and a fifty-year-old Huan Huan came out of the guest room in front of her, frowning and said: "What's wrong with Uncle's horse?" Uncle listened to it screaming ......so badly" As soon as the Auntie saw Xiaoyu, the words behind her stopped abruptly, and she took a few steps back as if she had seen a ghost, and looked at Xiaoyu with a pair of eyes that were round and shocked.
